RESUMEN
The effect of acceptor energy level on electron transfer rate in blends of the polymer solar-cell material poly[[4,8-bis[(2-ethylhexyl)oxy]benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene-2,6-diyl][3-fluoro-2-[(2-ethylhexyl)carbonyl]thieno[3,4-b]thiophenediyl]] (PTB7) is studied using time-resolved fluorescence. Fast electron transfer in less than 2 ps is observed for a driving force between 0.2 and 0.6 eV and the electron transfer is slower outside this range. This dependence is described by Marcus theory with a reorganization energy of ≈0.4 eV.
RESUMEN
We have demonstrated controlled assembly between CdSe quantum dots (QDs) and a fullerene (C60) derivative via complementary three-point hydrogen bonding interactions. The recognition-mediated assembly facilitated an interpenetrated network morphology and hence efficient charge transfer from QD to C60.
